ok well i had my book bag sitting in the mudd room and rocco got to the bottom of the bag where i keep my school snacks and there he foud 6 oreos! i came home nd the bag was there empty.. do u think he will get very sick or what will happen?? thanks

The newsletter.... Ok, in the barking section. I was a little shocked to see what was written where it says: "the Citronella Collar and the Ultrasound Anti-Barker. Both of these are harmless and can deter barking."

I think the Citronella Collar is not harmless at all! With how many scent receptors a dog has in his nose, this could be horribly cruel. I wouldn't want that sprayed in my nose!

thank you River. when does it get easier? i didn't know how painful this would be. i just miss her so much. i want her back. am i being selfish? i would give anything to hold her again just one more day.

Puppie made her a picture and it is PERFECT! I wasn't sure about a moving pic but it turned out just fine and she loves it. She thanks Puppie for making her that special picture! I will put it on Shaela's page. If anyone would like to see a video I made for her in memory of Geezer, the website is

We are so very sad about poor Geezer. He is in Renal failure and is in pain. She is taking him in tomorrow. I am here to ask a favor. Can anybody make a picture of him with angel wings? I would like to give that to her. I just don't know how to do that. Geezer has a great story. He just showed up one day on her back porch. He was just sitting there staring at her through the glass door! My sister has never been a "cat person" or even an animal person, for that matter. Until this funny looking little persian cat came into her life! His quirky little ways made everyone fall in love with him. He adopted her! She is so sad today and crying and I feel so helpless. I will put some pictures of him on Shaela's page. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. I don't want a picture that moves, though. Thanks so much!

Thanks ev erypup! Sorry, Mom has been so busy rescuing doggies she hasn't had time to get on dogster much! The pretrial date was moved and in front of a different judge. Mom really liked the other judge, she really let the defense have it!!!! Mom will probably be there at the next one. Operation Kindness's website keeps you posted on that.

MERCY TRIAL UPDATE

The date of the next pretrial hearing in Mercy’s case has been changed by Judge Snipes to Tuesday, August 21, at 9 a.m. There will NOT be a hearing on August 17 as previously scheduled.

This hearing, as well as the trial on Sept. 24, will take place in Criminal District Court No. 7 on the 7th Floor of the Frank Crowley Courts Building in Dallas.

If you’ve been following Mercy’s case, you are probably aware that DeShawn Brown is already on probation in another state for an armed robbery charge. YOU CAN HELP by writing to the judge in that case and expressing your concern about DeShawn Brown being out on bail. Below is a sample letter, along with the address of the judge.

I am concerned about DeShawn Brown, who was placed on probation out of your court. As you are aware, he moved to the North Texas area and is currently facing third-degree felony charges for animal cruelty. He is charged with stabbing, dousing with gasoline and setting on fire his own dog, a sweet-natured, 10-month-old puppy known as Mercy. He then abandoned her to die. She was rescued the next day and taken to a local animal shelter. Although veterinarians tried to save her, Mercy died from the wounds inflicted on her.

I understand that DeShawn Brown is innocent until proven guilty in this case, but in the past few months he has been arrested many times and has numerous outstanding pending cases from Dallas and Denton Counties.

I strongly believe DeShawn Brown is a danger to my community, and I implore you to take this matter very seriously.

Thank you,
